Incretin-based Drugs Market Introduction and Overview â€“ 

According to SPER Market Research, the Global Incretin-based Drugs Market is estimated to reach USD 71.11 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 6.52%.

The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Incretin-based Drugs Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The Global Incretin-based Drugs market was valued at USD 37.81 billion in 2024 and is projected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.52% between 2025 and 2034. Incretin-based therapies are a category of drugs prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes. They function by enhancing the action of gut hormones known as incretins. These hormones prompt the pancreas to secrete insulin when food is consumed, helping to regulate and reduce blood sugar levels in the body. This mechanism assists individuals with type 2 diabetes in achieving better glycemic control.
By Drugs Type Insights
The incretin-based drugs market is segmented into GLP-1 receptor agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors. Among these, GLP-1 receptor agonists are witnessing significant growth due to the increasing cases of type 2 diabetes worldwide. Most individuals diagnosed with diabetes are affected by type 2, highlighting the demand for effective treatment options. These drugs help regulate blood sugar by boosting insulin secretion and lowering glucagon levels after meals. Research also shows that medications like Semaglutide improve glucose control. Additionally, they aid in weight loss by reducing hunger and slowing digestion. The development of weekly injection options further enhances patient convenience and adherence.

By Route of Administration Insights
The incretin-based drugs market is divided by route of administration into oral and injectable forms. Among these, oral drugs are gaining traction due to their ease of use and better patient acceptance compared to injections. Many diabetes patients show a clear preference for oral treatments over injectable ones. Continuous advancements in oral drug formulations have improved their effectiveness and safety, encouraging better adherence. For example, new developments like nonpeptide oral GLP-1 receptor agonists are being explored for managing weight and diabetes. Oral drugs are also easier to store, transport, and administer, reducing pressure on healthcare systems and enhancing patient convenience.

Regional Insights
North America holds a significant share in the incretin-based drugs market, with the U.S. leading due to its high burden of chronic illnesses like type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart-related conditions. These health concerns are driving the demand for effective treatment options. The U.S. has a large diabetic population, most of whom are affected by type 2 diabetes, making blood sugar control and weight management crucial. Factors such as increasing obesity rates, lack of physical activity, and an aging population further fuel the rise in diabetes. As a result, incretin-based drugs are becoming increasingly important in disease management across the region.
